Write a 500-word debate on whether money is everything

Money is not everything, but living without money is absolutely impossible. As Xiao Shenyang in the Spring Festival Gala said: "Money is something you don't bring with you when you are born, and you don't take it with you after death." But money also has good and bad qualities. If you have money, you can buy a house, but you cannot buy the warmth of home; If you have money, you can buy clocks, but you cannot buy time; if you have money, you can buy books, but you cannot buy knowledge... Some people are willing to do some illegal things for money. , and lost everything he had.

What is money? The philosopher said: "Money is a creditor who lends you a moment of joy and makes you pay for a lifetime of misfortune." In today's era, money is only a material need, and many people regard money as a material People say: "Money is food, clothes, cars, and houses." To live a materially happy life, but this is also people's misunderstanding of "money". They only see the surface of money and do not understand it. to the true meaning of money.

A lonely rich man walked into a bookstore that specialized in selling joke books, and he bought an expensive joke book. He watched it at home for a long time, but his mood was still dull and he couldn't feel any happiness. There is a family of old and young. They are very poor. Tomorrow they will just rely on selling the eggs laid by the chickens they feed to support their lives. The Spring Festival is coming soon, and the rich man is still lonely, but the poor family is preparing to celebrate the Spring Festival. On the day of the Spring Festival, the rich man went to visit their home and asked them: "What a hard and poor life you live, will you still be happy?" The family said: "We have no money, but the warmth of our home is ! You are alone at home every day, you don’t understand.” The rich man was celebrating the festival at their home, and the rich man’s long-lost laughter came from the house. Since then, he has donated two-thirds of his family property to charities, living with them and living a happy life.
